Patent number: 6925255Abstract: A camera is provided which includes a camera exterior housing which covers the camera and which has an inclined surface. A first electric part and a second electric part are provided such that longitudinal directions thereof are parallel. A first end surface of the first electric part and a first end surface of the second electric part are disposed along an inner wall of the inclined surface of the exterior housing so as to form a step. In addition, a connector for connection of a flexible printed substrate is provided which includes a connector terminal array provided in a connector main body and a holding member which is adapted to switch between a holding position and a releasing position. The flexible printed substrate is insertable and removable with respect to a first side of the connector main body when the holding member is in the releasing position.Type: GrantFiled: October 13, 2004Date of Patent: August 2, 2005Assignee: Olympus Optical Co., Ltd.Inventors: Sayuri Watanabe, Sumito Honda
